ISSUES FACING YOUR INDUSTRY

The Oil & Gas industry faces many environmental challenges due to its remote nature. Often located out in the ocean or far reaching communities, any environmental exposure is exaggerated due to its geography. During off-shore drilling activities and processing, the industry is vulnerable to large scale oil spills required rapid and large scale response. Further, operations both onshore and offshore face challenges with dangerous goods storage and hazardous liquids containment. Hydraulic equipment used in construction also has the potential to leak hazardous substances into the surrounding environment and cause pollution. We recommend a range of oil spill response equipment, marine containment and containment solutions to ensure your organisation protects its environment.

To assist your environmental efforts, we have compiled a list of potential risks facing organisations within your industry and corresponding product solutions and other related material to help you protect your environment. Please click on a question relevant to your organisation for more information. If you face an issue not covered in this section, please type your question into the text box below and we will respond to your enquiry shortly.

FAQs

Q: Do you conduct earth moving or excavation operations?

Q: Do you operate portable generators or other hydraulic equipment?

Chatoyer Solution

Any hydraulic equipment has the potential to leak hazardous substances into the surrounding environment and cause pollution if not contained appropriately.
Cateogory : Spill Containment
Product Solution : Assise Portable Containment Bund
Application : For temporary storage of mobile generators or other hydraulic equipment during operations
Product Solution : SpilMax Spill Response Absorbents
Application : The SpilMax range of absorbent pads and rolls are suitable for the clean-up of large hydrocarbon spills (including oils and fuels) and other hazardous liquids.
Q: Do you conduct dredging operations in aquatic systems?

Chatoyer Solution

Dredging operations causes large quantities of silt and sediment to be disrupted in marine environments. This could potentially release contaminants into environmentally sensitive regions of the aquatic system.
Cateogory : Marine Containment
Product Solution : Assise Aquatic Silt Curtain
Application : An impervious barrier designed to control the settling of solids (silt) suspended in water
Q: Do you conduct drilling operations in aquatic systems?

Chatoyer Solution

In the event of a leak during drilling operations, this could cause large quantities of oil or other hazardous substances to migrate into environmentally sensitive regions of the aquatic stem, if not contained or cleaned up properly.
Cateogory :
Product Solution : Assise Aquatic Containment Booms
Application : An impervious barrier designed to deflect or contain spill or floating debris in marine environments.
Product Solution : SpilMax Spill Absorbents
Application : The SpilMax range of marine booms are suitable for the containment of hydrocarbons (including oils and fuels) on water.
Product Solution : Lamor Oil Skimmers
Application : The Lamor range of oil skimmers are suitable for the clean-up of oil in any marine environment.
